Five CFI On Campus Affiliates Receive Group Awards at 2010 CFI Leadership Conference

This year, at the 2010 Center for Inquiry Student Leadership
Conference, five student groups were recognized for their unique,
impressive accomplishments throughout the 2009-2010 academic year. The
Missouri
State Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster won the "Best On
Campus Event" award for Skepticon
II, a free, multi-day conference featuring PZ Myers, Victor
Stenger, Dan Barker, Richard Carrier, D.J. Grothe, Joe Nickell, Robert
Price, and Rebecca Watson. Skepticon II, which was attended by 400
people in Springfield, Missouri, will be followed up by 2010's Skepticon III, to be held November
19-21, which hopes to be even bigger and better. The "Best New Group"
award went to the California State University – Bakersfield Free
Thinking Society. The group, led by Eddy Lee, was created in 2009 and
organized lectures, which were attended by hundreds, by Michael
Shermer, William Lobdell, and Liora Gubkin.

About The Course of Reason

The Course of Reason was launched in 2010 with three main goals in mind. The first is to highlight the achievements of our student groups by regularly
posting articles on their events and activities. The second is to spread knowledge and skills needed to run a freethinking campus group by soliciting
articles from successful group leaders on organizational topics like event planning and fundraising. The last is to get students involved and experienced
in voicing their opinions on current events and relevant cultural issues.

The viewpoints expressed on The Course of Reason are the viewpoints of the individual blogger only and do not necessarily reflect the viewpoints of, nor
should they be attributed to, CFI or its affiliates, or any of their directors or officers.
